Guiding Light: Character Profiler-Edmund Winslow

It seems like the most interesting profiles come from the characters that have a devilish side to them. Edmund is no exception to that. He came in a spiteful prince and left even more spiteful. Along the way Edmund tried the saint approach but it's wasn't in his nature. Edmund is definitely a complex character. He also got away with some pretty mean things. Take a look at what I am talking about. Tell me what your favorite Edmund moment is in the comment section.

@Goldenrod636 Yes while he and Cassie were still living in San Cristobel, Richard discovered that Alonzo Baptiste, a Fisherman was the Real San Cristobel Prince. Alonzo at first didn't want the Title but after Richard died, he knew that he had to lead the Country or it would revert back to being Owned. Sadly enough he died.

So was Alonzo the third son?

Edmund was interesting mainly due to David Andrew McDonald's amazing perfomances. I so miss seeing him on my screen. I was lucky enough to meet him at a GL gathering ( where he got a standing ovation by the crowd) and later he came to the table in the bar where us Edmund/David fans were sitting and talked to us. Very Gracious with a great sense of humor

Your videos are just awesome! They bring back a lot memories :)

Anyway, I think Edmund was one the best villains on television, and certainly one of the best ones on "Guiding Light". He could be ruthless and mean, and then again there was something fragile and compassionate about him, i.e. he fell really hard for Beth and Cassie and he could actually feel pain and remorse about her in the tower (he panicked when she was left with no food and water), then for Richard whom he thought was dead

The Dark Prince is now dancing around on Broadway in a bright orange disco outfit and living with his boyfriend Nigel. Ha! Ha! I just had the priviilege of seeing David Andrew McDonald in Mamma Mia this weekend and he was fabulous. His character of Edmund was certainly very compelling.

Edmund was the only guy I ever liked Cassie with and I agree that Jeffery was all about Richard. If Jeffery & Dinah hadn't played on Edmund's insecurities he'd never have hit Jeffery & he did save her. I say that was the sanest Edmund was & they could have happily ever aftered.

I was so hopeful for Edmund. I was hoping that he would be the next Roger Thorpe of sorts. It just seemed in the end, TPTB ruined a promising character.
